Abstract

The work deals with the results of a pilot research to aimed at the diff erences in load of bipedal and quadrupedal walking. Th e aim of the investigation was to verify appropriate methodological procedures for measuring a wider sample of population, determining the appropriate speed, the required length of the measured sections and of terrain gradient. Consecutively we could learn the fundamental diff erences of load intensity and work out the recommendations to maintain or improve physical fi tness of the gene ral population. Th e results of our study with one proband were particularly attractive in terms of diff erences between the two types of walking with increasing speed and level of terrain.
